[HCARC] HF conditions

[Kerry Sandstrom]

Hey gang,

two more good size sunspot groups came over the sun's limb today. We now 
have 6 decent size groups on the the sun, 3 in the northern hemisphere 
and 3 in the southern hemisphere.  These will probably be present for 
the next 6 - 7 days and then the first 2 will go to the sun's backside.  
We should expect good HF conditions for the next week plus.  Sunspot 
numbers will be above 100 and the solar flux will be 170 or more.  No 
big flares are expected so once again if you want to be on the higher HF 
bands, now is a great time.
